Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the production and form preservation of a hollow extruded product made of cementitious material.
  • the present invention relates to the field of extrusion processes of end-products made of cementitious material of any hollow form, for example, tubular, box-shaped with or without internal partitions, in accordance with the preamble of claim 1.
  • the present invention relates to a process for the production by extrusion of piping made of fibre-cement with a circular section and fine thickness.
  • the present invention allows the production of cementitious products, for applications in the building and industrial sector such as for example permanent formworks for pillars, channels and chimney flues, etc..
  • the typical end-products used have a tubular form and are made of cementitious materials such as concrete reinforced with fibres, reinforced concrete, asbestos-cement and fibre-cement without asbestos.
  • plastic materials such as polyvinylchloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and glass-resin.
  • PVC polyvinylchloride
  • PE polyethylene
  • PP polypropylene
  • glass-resin glass-resin
  • Cementitious end-products having different shapes are also available on the market, such as for example, tubular footrest or flat bottom pipes, elliptic or ovoidal pipes, rectangular end-products, or pipes with other sections specifically designed for favouring the maximum fluid flow in their interior.
  • Another important construction characteristic of cementitious end-products and in particular pipes consists in their thickness; those having a so-called “fine thickness”, typically have a vacuum percentage of the section higher than 60%.
  • a typical example is represented by pipes made of fibre-cement.
  • pipes made of fibre-cement having a fine thickness are also known, mainly produced by means of the so-called Mazza process (deriving from the Hatschek technology).
  • the material used par excellence was asbestos-cement, recently substituted for environmental reasons by so-called fibre-cement.
  • the Mazza/Hatschek process cementitious compositions are used, containing cement, process fibres and reinforcing fibres (both synthetic and natural) and other secondary additives.
  • the products obtained have high mechanical characteristics, they are extremely compact and have low thicknesses.
  • the extrusion can be effected with batch or intermittent plug/cylinder systems ("plug extrusion", or “capillary extrusion"), or with continuous screw/cylinder systems.
  • plug extrusion or "capillary extrusion”
  • continuous screw/cylinder systems With the exception of ceramic stoneware, in all the other cases the extrusion is carried out horizontally.
  • ceramic stoneware in fact, thanks to the high thicknesses of the pipes in relation to their length (normally two metres), there is a rigidity in the fresh state of the pipes which does not cause deformation or distortion.
  • extruders having two consecutive screws, intervalled by a vacuum chamber to facilitate the pressurized extrusion of pastes.
  • extruder models normally used in the brick industry.
  • vacuum percentage refers to the percentage ratio between the empty surface and the full surface of the end-product. The greater this percentage, especially in the presence of large dimensional end-products, the more critical the problem of maintaining the form becomes.
  • the possibility of obtaining an adequate green strength of the extruded product is typically related to various composition or process parameters, such as: compactness of the solid components; the low water/solid ratio of the paste also correlated with the mechanical resistance of the material; the extrusion pressure; the possibility of using a heated die; the possibility of using chemical compounds capable of being thermally activated to harden the outgoing material.
  • WO-A-93/20990 discloses a process for the production and form preservation of a hollow neo-extruded end-product made of cementitious material according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • One of the objectives of the present invention therefore consists in providing a process for the production of hollow extruded products made of cementitious material which allows to maintain substantially the form of the end-product immediately after the extrusion phase.
  • a further objective of the present invention consists in providing a process for the production of piping made of cementitious material having a circular section which allows to maintain substantially the form of the end-product immediately after the extrusion phase.
  • Another objective of the present invention consists in providing a process which allows the production of piping made of fibre-cement with a fine thickness which stably preserves its circular form after extrusion.
  • a further aspect of the present invention consists in providing a method for preserving, at the outlet of the die, the circular form of the fibre-cement piping produced by extrusion.
  • a process is provided for the production of piping made of cementitious material having a circular section in accordance with claim 1.
  • a process for the production and form preservation of a hollow neo-extruded end-product made of cementitious material wherein the hollow neo-extruded end-product is subjected to treatment with microwaves which causes its rapid stiffening allowing its form to be preserved.
  • Neo-extruded end-product refers to the product continuously leaving the die of the extruder without having undergone any cutting phase and therefore still in contact with the extruder die.
  • Harddening refers to the completion of the hydration process of the cement-based materials reaching the final performances required.
  • “Stiffening” gives the neo-extruded end-product the physical consistency of lack of ductility and mobility of the material mass, due to the release of water.
  • the process of the invention is particularly used in the production and form preservation of cementitious end-products having a circular geometry.
  • the end-products with a circular geometry tend to collapse immediately after the extrusion phase and consequently lose their circular form.
  • An embodiment of the invention envisages the use of a tunnel oven which, installed downstream of the extrusion die, allows the continuous treatment of the neo-extruded end-product causing its stiffening and allowing the form provided by extrusion to be maintained.
  • the extruded product continues to move, after leaving the extruder die, on a mandrel which guarantees the low friction slipping of the neo-extruded product.
  • the process of the invention allows the form of the neo-extruded product to be maintained by irradiation with microwaves which causes an acceleration of the hydration reactions of the cement. This effect prevents deformation of the end-product in the period immediately after extrusion.
  • microwaves are known for the treatment of non-extruded cementitious materials, in order to accelerate the hardening process ( US 4,338,138 ).
  • the use of microwaves is described for completing the curing of cementitious materials, already partially cured by means of conventional methods (wet, vapour methods and with autoclaving).
  • treatment with microwaves refers to the use of electromagnetic waves generally having a frequency ranging from 300 to 300,000 MHz of the electromagnetic spectrum, which correspond to wavelengths varying from 1 to 1000 mm. From a practical point of view, there are only certain frequencies allowed for industrial use. These are called “ISM frequencies” (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) which correspond to the wavelengths indicated in the following Table: Table 1 frequency, MHz Wave-length, cm 915 32.8 2450 12.2 5800 5.2 24120 1.2
  • the frequency of 2450 MHz is that most commonly used, whereas in some industrial processes the frequency of 915 MHz. is also used.
  • the majority of microwaves are produced by means of wave generators called magnetron.
  • klystron In some cases, other types of wave generator have been used, called “klystron” or “gyrotron”. In any case, the latter two types are only used for very high frequency microwaves (corresponding to wavelengths of less than a centimeter). For higher frequencies (5800 and 24120 MHz) they have so far only been used in extremely rare cases as they are very expensive.
  • the treatment of cement-based materials with microwaves according to the present invention differ from the known art in that it is applied to hollow neo-extruded products and also because the application is carried out on line in relation to the stiffening phase of the material.
  • the on-line treatment with microwaves can be applied to the extrusion of all geometries of end-products made of cementitious material, to accelerate the production process, especially in cases in which there can be problems relating to form maintenance at the die outlet, such as for example, panels, draw-pieces of various sections, tubular elements.
  • the process of the invention is therefore particularly suitable for the production, by means of extrusion, of pipes having a circular geometry and fine thickness, typically having a vacuum percentage of the section higher than 60%, preferably higher than 70%.
  • a higher vacuum percentage corresponds, with the same nominal diameter, to a greater lightness of the pipe which, for a same malt in fibre-cement composition, in turn corresponds to a lower cost per linear meter of product, as indicated in Table 2 below.
  • the fine thickness referred to in this case is, for the same internal diameter (called “nominal” for fibre-cement piping), lower than that of a pipe made of reinforced or non-reinforced concrete, of the traditional type, or ceramic stoneware.
  • the process of the invention typically allows an end-product having a circular section to be obtained, such as pipes, joints and accessories for gravity systems according to the regulation UNI EN 588-1 and for discharge systems for buildings in accordance with the regulation UNI EN 12763.
  • the pipes having a circular section obtained with the process of the invention are used in numerous applications sectors, for example in discharge systems, such as sewage disposal, or in drainage systems, and also in pressurized applications or in other types of liquid or gas channelling, at atmospheric operating pressure or slightly higher (for example chimney flues), or as permanent formworks, for the construction of circular pillars or other cylindrical and hollow elements for the building industry.
  • the end-products obtained with the process of the invention are typically based on cementitious material or fibre-cement, the latter term comprising cement-based materials containing reinforcing fibres of the natural or synthetic type.
  • the dimensioning of the microwave system suitable for obtaining the stiffening of the end-product and also the moving system is typically effected according to operating requirements.
  • the use in the process of a tunnel microwave oven allows the controlled heating of the extruded product so as to make it sufficiently rigid in line with the extrusion process.
  • the neo-extruded product can be typically moved either by the thrust of the extruder or by means of an external pulling or haulage system, as occurs for example in the extrusion of piping made of plastic material.
  • the pulling system is followed by a cutting system of the piping, which, according to an embodiment, is sent to the final curing section.
  • FIG. 1 this schematically illustrates the preliminary phases of an embodiment of the process of the invention.
  • a mixer 1 is fed with:

  • the liquid components, comprising water, are then added, and the mixing is prolonged for a time typically ranging from 1 to 5 minutes again in relation to the characteristics of the mixer and outside temperature.
  • the mixture can be in different semi-solid forms varying from wet powder to small pellets or in the form of a paste.

  • the semi-fluid system obtained in the form of a paste is collected in a box and sent on belts for feeding an extruder 6.
  • the extruder is preferably of the twin-screw type in series, for example of the type produced by the company Haendle.
  • the twin-screw extruder is equipped for example with two screws arranged orthogonally with respect to each other, of which the second screw 6b, which is horizontal, typically having a diameter of 350 mm, is suitable for compacting the material also a high pressures.
  • Said extruder is particularly suitable for high viscosity materials and which produce considerable friction as cementitious materials.
  • the first screw, 6a which is vertical, is used for the loading of the material, the second horizontally 6b for the actual drawing phase and, in correspondence with the draw-plate, a typical maximum internal pressure of 50 bars can be reached, preferably about 40 bars; between the two areas, there is a chamber for creating a vacuum in order to obtain the maximum compacting of the material for a good surface finishing of the end-product.
  • the extrusion phase is preferably effected under controlled temperature conditions, typically below room temperature, by means of a cooling system, to ensure a good processability of the pastes thus slowing down the hydration kinetics of the cement.

  • the oven 9 is described in detail in figure 2 .

  • an appropriate source such as for example a microwave oven 9 in the form of a tunnel.
  • the applied power of the microwave oven according to an aspect of the present invention varies from 0.1 to 60 KW, referring to a frequency of 2450 MHz. Upon changing the reference frequency to 915 MHz, the applied power decreases as the greater the penetration capacity of the microwaves, the greater is the efficacy of the heating.
  • the mandrel 8 in particular, comprises an internal metal core 11 which guarantees the correct mechanical rigidity, and an outer coating 12 made of plastic material transparent to microwaves, typically polypropylene or polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon).
  • the materials forming the coating i2 must also be capable of facilitating the sliding of the pipe during the stiffening phase inside the oven 9.
  • the mandrel 8 must have an outer diameter lower than the internal diameter of the extruded pipe to avoid friction phenomena during the sliding phase.
  • the outer diameter of the mandrel 8 has lower dimensions ranging from 0.5 to 5% with respect to the internal diameter of the pipe, more preferably lower than 1-2%.
  • the neo-extruded cementitious end-product 7 moves between the various process phases thanks to the cooperation between the thrust of the extruder and that generated by a specific external pulling system 13.
  • the neo-extruded end-product is moved from the system 13 at a rate ranging from 0.5 - 5 metres/minute, preferably from 0.7-3 metres/minute, even more preferably 1 metre/minute.
  • the pulling system 13 is situated downstream of the microwave oven and consists of a series of conveyor belts 14 in a number and with dimensions in relation to the diameter of the neo-extruded piping, positioned in contact on two sides with the cementitious end-product.
  • the neo-extruded cementitious end-product is cut by means of a suitable system 15 obtaining pipes having a length varying in relation to the final specifications of the end-product.
  • the neo-extruded pipe is cut and sent to a final curing cycle for example by treatment with water at room temperature or heated, or for treatment in static climatic chambers and/or in tunnels on line with controlled temperature (maximum 50°C) and humidity conditions.
  • the pipe is subsequently sent to the final storage phase.
  • Piping made of fibre-reinforced cementitious material with a low thickness was obtained by extrusion and subsequent microwave treatment of the piping in the fresh state, so that it can be sent to the subsequent curing phase.
